SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR WIRELESS POWER DISTRIBUTION ALLOCATION
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- establishing, by a charging system comprising one or more processors, a first wireless connection with a first mobile device;
receiving, by the charging system, a first power request from the first mobile device, the first power request associated with a first minimum energy charge of the first mobile device;
determining, by the charging system, an available charging capacity of the charging system;
determining, by the charging system and based at least in part on the first power request and the available charging capacity, a first energy charge to provide wirelessly to the first mobile device;
providing, by the charging system, energy wirelessly to the first mobile device;
establishing, by the charging system, a second wireless connection with a second mobile device;
receiving, by the charging system, a second power request from the second mobile device, the second power request associated with a second minimum energy charge of the second mobile device;
determining, by the charging system, an updated available charging capacity of the charging system, based at least in part on the first energy charge;
determining, by the charging system and based at least in part on the first power request, the second power request, and the updated available charging capacity, a second energy charge to provide wirelessly to the second mobile device; and
providing, by the charging system, energy wirelessly to the second mobile device.

Abstract
Systems and methods for power distribution allocation are provided. A system may establish a first wireless connection between the system and a first mobile device. The system may receive a first power request from the first mobile device, the first power request associated with a first minimum energy charge of the first mobile device, and may determine an available charging capacity of the charging system. The system may determine a first energy charge to provide wirelessly to the first mobile device, and may establish a second wireless connection with a second mobile device. The system may receive a second power request from the second mobile device, and may receive a first charge indicator from the first mobile device associated with a present charging status of the first mobile device. The system may determine a second energy charge to provide wirelessly to the second mobile device.
